Chris Knight - Crooked Road guitar chord

Chris Knight Damn This Crooked Road

G Cadd9 D

When I was 16 took me a 15 year old wife

D Cadd9 G

I guess Ive been a working man just about all my life

G Cadd9 D

Like my daddy before me Ive done the best I could

D Cadd9 G

Somehow things turned out a little worse than they should

Logan West Virginia is a hundred mile behind

Coal mines took my boys life and my Janies piece of mind

All I know is back in Logan I aint never been that smart

But I know I had to leave there to heal my Janies heart

Walk Up Cadd9

Damn these hard times

D

Damn the coal mines

G Cadd9

Damn the good dreams gone cold

G D G

While im at it, damn this crooked road

Me and Janie worked hard to get our children grown

Junior was our first born and he gut us to the bone

We learned long ago that you dont doubt the good lords plans

But some things is hard to take lord we just tryin to understand

Chorus

Theres a big blue ocean about 300 mile

Sun on the water just might make my Janie smile

Light in her eyes is worth more to me to me than gold

Hope runs straight line right down this mountain road

Damn these hard times

Damn these coal mines

Damn the good dreams gone cold

While im at it, damn this crooked road

While im at it, damn this crooked road
